Testimonials

Testimonials:

"I had the pleasure of meeting Carri 2 summers ago while attending her Drishti yoga teacher training programme in Santorini, Greece. I was struck by her warmth, humour and down to earth nature. She gave thorough instruction and shared her expertise generously. I have a high regard of Carri as a teacher and person. Guess what? I met her again this past summer when I joined Drishti's 100hr advanced training in Portugal. Again, Carri was completely professional, warm and always inspiring. As a yoga teacher I can only talk and think positively about her. Looking forward to another adventure, Carri!" Fiona Greece 2015, Portugal, 2016
